there are some people here :) I have had very little problems or lost connections with it, once Heath made some changes (3.1.1. to 3.1.2).
Are you running Authoxy on the same port as the proxy? Our proxy is 8080, I run Authoxy on 8081. In the the NTLM tab, I'm not sure how much is relevant there to dropped connections, but our proxy is on the "MAIN" server and my powerbook is named "SSTRATPBOOK" in the Sharing preferences, so that's what I have there. As far as compatible apps, I have not found any apple app to be incompatible, including iPhoto, iTunes, Safari (but use FireFox and get the plugin called "SwitchProxy" if you're mobile between proxy/nonproxy locations!), Software Update. Most non-apple apps are compatible, even stuff like Microsoft Office Application Update. I only found Skype and MaxiBidder that didn't work. Of course I haven't tried everything. --Steve On 2/3/05 1:06 PM, "Steve Hodson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I've been using Authoxy for some time here at work, where almost everything > is MS based including our procy server.
